Properly installing coax connectors is a simple task with the proper tools. We will be using RG-6 coax cable, RG6 connectors, a compact wire stripper, a ring slit tool, and a compression tool, all from our production facility. We’ll start by measuring the cable to the proper length making sure to add at least an extra inch if not more. With our measurement made, and then cut the cable it using our stripping tool. This tool offers multiple crimp nests to handle a wide range of wire sizes. It also has a tapered plier nose that can be used to grip, twist, bend, or pull. Lastly, this tool offers a sharp cutting blade ideal for cutting solid and stranded wires as large as 10 gauge. Now we need to get past the insulation and the dielectric material. For this, we’ll use our ring slit tool. By looking at the blade we can see this tool cuts both the insulation and dielectric material at the same time. We’ll open the tool and place the cable into the trough allowing the tool to close. As we work the tool around, you will feel the insulation give. By pulling the tool away, we remove both the outer insulation and the dielectric material without damaging the internal shield. This tool works with Cat cable as well as multiple styles of coaxial cable. It also has a spare compartment for different blade types. Now we’ll place the connector over the stripped cable making sure we can see the central conductor past the top. After adjusting our tool to the proper compression level, we’ll place the connector and cable into the tool. By fully closing the tool, we have created a permanent 360-degree seal. This tool works with R/A, F, and RCA-type connectors. Its ratcheting action makes the tool easier to use. There you have it, we’ve created a superior electrical connection.
